I don't know why, but occasionally I'm amazed at the level of stupidity people can exhibit in public. This is one of those times. If it's my kid getting tossed, I'm pressing charges and suing for all sorts of damages; I was patient enough not to kick his azz first.

I saw the video a day or so ago, and that father should be arrested for felony assault against a minor. If he had touched my child like that there might not have been enough of him on the wrestling mat to arrest.

At least he didn't assault the official.

OK - bad taste, I admit.

The only thing that amazes me any more is that people can still be amazed at the stupidity of others. Genius is finite. Stupidity is infinite.

If that clown had done that to my son we'd find out how much my several years of martial arts training paid off. Then after my lawyer was through with him my son's college would be fully paid for and I'd be driving a brand new top of the line Escalade or Naviagtor!

Looked like he was going to make a run for the cameraman. DQ for illegal hold is what I remember from wrestling in phys ed many years ago. I hope his kid takes up cross country running--no way his jerk of a father will spectate 2.5 or 3 miles.
